Appreciate this script.

Are there any ways to modify the AA/PM to be one continuous line like here?

Odd question but on the default TPO/VPOC scripts is there a way to remove the current time per profile line and keep only the previous anchored ones?

Like this 1 hour per profile line wouldn't open this new profile line until that hour is over

@BeakedFish There is an indicator that can create support and resistance zones based on high volume i believe, if this helps.

Do you use this? If so, what do you make of the Grey and Yellow zones? Once out of the Green, Grey is upper lvl resistance, and yellow as support? I've seen on lower time frames the Grey zone being in the green zone. Just wondering how you read this. Thank you.

i dont use it, i think its areas where there was high volume in think that grey zones are smaller volume areas, i just posted it for the code, incase someone wanted to use it.
 
Great thread. Does anyone have a script to post a clearly delineated day/week/month Volume Profile with POC on the same chart?
 
I am using volume profile POS values and trying to get the yellow POC line extend as price levels. Like white lines shown below in pic.

thanks in advance

This might work on most symbols and timeframes that match the periods you requested. The way this works is to assign different values to each period, which remain the same until the next period. The variable cond then prints a new volume profile when the values change.

Is there way to change the layout of the volume profile. The Volume profile starts from right to left. Is there way to flip the profile starts from right side of the chart?

Thank u🙏

Here is the script you provided with 5 poc extensions to the right added at the bottom of the code. You can create more using the logic in the code. It is a very manual process.

This might work on most symbols and timeframes that match the periods you requested. The way this works is to assign different values to each period, which remain the same until the next period. The variable cond then prints a new volume profile when the values change.

Can this indicator be turn into monkey bar indicator or flip the indicator? Starts from the right and points to left.

I looked at the link you shared. can it be applied to the code you created for me?

Basically, no. We do not have very much control or actual understanding of how TOS forms the profiles. The monkey bars does not look usable when breaking it down similar to the link.

For this particular code could someone add a piece of code to shade in between the VAH and VAL?
